Funk band, Parliament, would go on to make one of their longest living singles in this album,
Mothership Connection. The National Recording Registry added the album since the Library of Congress stated that it impacted the genres of dance, rock, and jazz. Vocalist, George Clinton explained the concept of the album being one that would put African Americans in situations that no one would consider in the time of 1975, Clinton included the White House as an example.
I have to say that when "Give Up the Funk" came on that I did dance a bit, and if this album had entirely just consisted of that song I would have been a happy person, but sadly that is not the case there were other songs to listen to that just weren't as enjoyable. Maybe it was enjoyable because it's a familiar tune that has been a while around without a band name to place to it.
